Title:
  gksudo nautilus won't set ownership/permissions on files below

Status in Nautilus:
  Fix Released
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Open gksudo nautilus
  Choose a folder, right click, choose properties
  Choose permissions
  Change from root.root to local user for all choices
  Change permissions to create & delete
  Click the "Apply permissions to enclosed files"

  The permissions and ownership are changed on the folder, but not on
  any of the subfolders or files below.

  I can provide screen shots if necessary.  Its repeatable.

  chmod and chown work fine on their own using sudo at console.

  Thanks
